Abstract

The environmental quality, world water scarcity and clean energy have been established today as central disciplines in modern science, engineering and technology. Corrosion affects the durability of the civil infrastructure assets, including the water production, supply and storage systems. Green corrosion inhibitors, to prevent and protect against corrosion, will extend the life of the water industrial equipment. This inhibitors pertain to the advanced field of "Green Chemistry" also known as sustainable chemistry. They are classified as anodic, cathodic or mixed types depending on their protection mechanism. Special green inhibitors are obtained from plants growing in desertic regions of The State of Baja California, Mexico, by ethanolic and aqueous extraction.
